Mini World – June 2019

Mini restoration

A ached are some pics of my 2000 Cooper which is

being completely overhauled and an opportunity is

being taken to get rid of some rusty panels and bodged

repairs to the front of the car. The engine and overhauled

front subframe will then be ready to be inserted!

Best of luck with the project Terry! [KD]

A great read

I just read the great article in the Spring issue of MiniWorld

[Archive: Reg Phillips interview]. Usually for me the

best bit in the magazine is the consistently excellent,

and always distinctive, article you slip in towards the

end, always providing new insight on BMC/BL/Rover

operations. It makes me wonder what we learn from

what we've done in the past, both good and bad.

Thanks for the feedback Richard. It's amazing that we are

still uncovering treasures from the Mini's heritage and the

amazing people that have played a part in its history. [KD]

In the Spring 2019 issue, Reg Phillips told us about his days working at Longbridge.

The 2 March saw mine, Alex Ferguson's and

Brian Adamo's li le gems out for a lively spin

around town for Nashville Cars N Co ee.

Thanks for the pics. We love seeing your pics of

Minis next to huge American muscle cars. [KD]
